    Subject: The old nose wheel shimmy issue
    Well, mine has gotten noticeable enough to do something about. Of course I reviewed my archives and Tim's website as refresher. Taking the cowling off and checking things I found that I could not tighten the big nut to the next flat, so the amount of pull is irrelevant at the moment. Has anyone tried new Belleville washers? Secondly, I noticed about a 1/4" of up/down play on the nose gear leg, which I assume is compression of the donuts. (I am at about 130 hours). Will check today to see if another washer is needed. Yes, I have done the service bulletin upgrade, and there was no play at the time. I guess the next step will be to get a wheel balancer and balance the nose wheel. Then do the mains at annual condition inspection. Has anyone drilled the bottom of the gear leg to get an intermediate cotter pin position for the pivot nut? -sent from the I-droid implanted in my forearm

    I have 2 holes in my gear leg to provide for a little more adjustment precision. No big deal on that. Are you 100% sure that the shimmy is nosewheel? I really doubt it is. Almost everyone who has a shimmy, has it in the mains, although it FEELS like a nosewheel shimmy. I really don't find much for issue with the nosewheel at all, other than making sure you have a good breakout force on the rotation. And, of course, there is that need to take out the play of the donuts occasionally. I can't remember how many I have in there, but at least 2.

    I had the same 1/4 vertical play and found the bushing to be the culprit. A little bit of play in that bushing easily makes a 1/4 out at the wheel. Vans sells over sized bushings, so I purchased one and found to was too over sized. My cousin is a machinist, so be sent me a set of snap gauges and I measured it. Then we turned the oversized bushing down to match the hole with .002 gap. Its currently sitting in the center console of my truck so I dont have a report yet. Hopefully in the next few weeks I can have it installed and see if they addressed the play.

    Thanks Tim. Yes, I had 3 friends observe my taxi in from last flight and comment on how much the nose wheel was shimmying. Yes, I have had main gear shimmy in the past. Nose is at lower speed and higher frequency shimmy. I'll check with the fish scale, get somewhere around 25-30 lb pull and then drill new hole. -sent from the I-droid implanted in my forearm On Mon, Dec 18, 2017 at 7:54 AM, Tim Olson <Tim@myrv10.com> wrote: > > I have 2 holes in my gear leg to provide for a little more > adjustment precision.

    Interesting. This is the first time I can actually remember anyone actually having the shimmy be nosewheel related. I guess I'd do a tire balance then. And while you have it on the balancer, make sure it's still round perhaps. Tim On 12/18/2017 09:04 AM, Kelly McMullen wrote: > Thanks Tim.

    I know nosewheel shimmy is common on the two place RV's as AntiSplat Aero offers a machining to replace wheel bearings with sealed, precision bearings, Shaving of tread to ensure tire roundness and then spin balancing. Obviously our design is a bit different with the donuts. Will try the obvious things and see if that gets rid of it. I think it was Les commented that his went away after balancing all three wheels. Hard to tell how much shimmy might transfer between the gear legs. On 12/18/2017 8:13 AM, Tim Olson wrote: > > Interesting.

    Hi As Kelley noted, I used a motorcycle wheel balanced on all three wheels. It worked quite well. Of Kate I have noticed that I am getting a shimmy again. WheN I last had my pants off (wheel!!!) I noticed a lot of crud on the wheels. I wonder if that has caused an imbalance. Anyway, I will be doing my annual after Christmas and plan to replace my main tyres and rebalance everything along with setting nosewheel breakout pressure. Ill report back after I do this - this will be in lat Jan as I will be away till then. Cheers Les PS. Merry Christmas to all my RV10 brethren!

    Well, a morning of work yielded front nose fork pull was around 15-18 lbs. Adjusted that up to about 28-29 lbs, and drilled new cotter pin hole. Shock disk tower needed the second spacer. Installed that. There still is a little play at the firewall bushings, but the play at the wheel is noticeably better with the extra spacer. Now to finish putting it back together and try it out. Still have wheel balancing if needed. On 12/18/2017 10:04 AM, kearney wrote: > > Hi > > As Kelly noted, I used a motorcycle wheel balanced on all three wheels. It worked quite well.

    Les, Is Canada going to invest in ADS-B at all? with sufficient ground stations, it works very well for getting track of missing aircraft, down to 1-200 ft if there is enough coverage. We have achieved significantly better coverage than we have with radar. -sent from the I-droid implanted in my forearm On Mon, Dec 18, 2017 at 3:10 PM, kearney <kearney@shaw.ca> wrote: > > Hi > > I understand that ELTs have a less than stellar success rate in real world > accidents.

    I'm a big fan of ADS-B.. not only for radar services, but for SAR. Canada's investment in ADS-B doesn't seem to be likely in the form of ground stations, at least in the near future. Instead, NavCanada is in a joint venture called Aireon to ultimately use ADS-B receivers on satellites to pick up position information anywhere on the globe (http://www.navcanada.ca/en/products-and-services/pages/on-board-operational-initiatives-ads-b.aspx). If this ever actually happens, it would be great for finding ADS-B equipped planes that go missing. A pilot wouldn't have to worry about whether their ELT survives an accident - SAR could just start searching at the last broadcast ADS-B position and the plane shouldn't be far from there. In the meantime, web sites like FlightAware help organize amateur ADS-B "feeder sites" to their data. A friend of mine operates several such sites as a "hobby" for a very minimal cost. Over time, coverage is getting better and better as more amateurs throughout the world join on board. Check their current coverage map at https://flightaware.com/adsb/coverage There's still lots of gaps in mountainous regions with low population, but it's pretty good in most areas with more people. And if Canada ever finalizes the details for global coverage via satellite it will be a game changer. Though in a perfect world I'd love it if Canada were to follow the US initiative to provide traffic and weather via ADS-B In, beggars can't be choosers. I've had ADS-B out on my plane since the beginning (going to need it soon for flights into US transponder airspace anyway), and I've always been amazed at how well my flights have been tracked on FlightAware. I also just installed ADS-B In a week or so ago.. in Canada, until more and more aircraft support ADS-B out, it's only a partial solution for traffic since I only see ADS-B Out equipped aircraft. But something is better than nothing, and in the US I should be able to receive traffic targets for most aircraft in controlled airspace and free inflight weather to boot... I'm looking forward to a flight I'm hoping to do to the US in a week or two to test it out further.
